happiness help: I’m having eating problems and I just feel so low. - Help.com



This post left anonymously

I’m having eating problems and I just feel so low.

I had 860 calories which is to much, far to much and I don’t know how long I want to go on. I was so happy like 1 hour ago and now I’m so low, I feel like crying and I feel like cutting . I feel I want to purge. I’m so useless and pathetic. I’ll only be happy when I 68lbs and I don’t think I’ll be able to do it. I want to cry. I don’t really having anyone else to talk to, I just can’t open up to anyone. I need to ramble so it stops me from doing something stupid. Why am I so happy one minute and down the next. I’ll never be good enough. I’m slipping more and more each day and I’m becoming more and more obsessed.

I agree…68lbs is for people who are like 6-8 years old, and since this place is for people 13 and up…I really don’t think what you’re doing is safe, so goodluck!

Don’t harm yourself because of something you wish you hadn’t done. We’re only human.
And now you have the opportunity to start over.

To try and clear things up, you consumed 860 calories in one sitting?
And you won’t be happy until you weigh 68 pounds? It seems a little extreme to want to be that weight.

If you plan on weighing 68lbs I also assume you’re planning on a young death? Sorry if that sounds harsh but thats the truth. You feel so low because you have no energy. I know that you have no energy because a human needs 2000 calories a day, that includes a balanced amount of fat, sugar, carbs, etc etc. You don’t get that, your mood drops. Your mood drops, so does you self esteem. You need to eat property to be happy with yourself and your body.

Ok. That is a perfect weight. What you need to concentrate on it maintaining that, not losing any, not gaining any.

First things first! DO NOT STARVE YOURSELF. Yes, this *could* help you lose weight. This could also kill you. This could also make you *gain* weight when you *do* eat. If you do not eat properly, when your body does receive food, it will take all of the fat and stuff from that and store it as it never knows where it’s next meal is coming from. If you want to be happy with your body and feel like you have full control you need to make sure you are treating your body well. Plenty of fruit and veg, protein etc… You need a balanced diet and exercise. Only then are you truly in control.

You are at an average weight for your height!!!
I calculated your BMI which says you are around 24. 85% of people your height also share your weight.

You may want to contact Food Addicts in Recovery Anonymous—they are a program that helps overeaters, bulimics etc.

i have the same problem…i deal with the stress by smoking. im not saying that you should smoke but find something that will distract your mind. an activity you love to do or a person you care about are both good options.
